but health care talked about jobs, mitt romney said the president's health care law will cost jobs. the president said no it will provide jobs and security. so you saw strong contrast between the perceptions of what the president's health care law means. governor romney went to great lengths to say he would preserve existing medicare, create a choice system for future retirees, those ten years away from it, and he also said those in tupper income in america would pay or receive less medicare benefits on a means-tested basis. that's a new idea he hasn't pushed as aggressively. what i think the president failed to do is something his campaign has been attacking mitt romney on which is the whole question about access to contraceptions and payment for that under a health care law for women. that's a key constituency for the president. his campaign has talked a bit about it but in his health care answers the president defended his health care law but didn't attack governor romney on what is clearly in the polling data been one of his biggest vulnerabilities. my guess is, scott, that have

that's explicitly prohibit in the law. but let's go back to what governor romney indicated. under his plan, he would be able to cover people with pre-existing conditions. well, actually, governor, that isn't what your plan dis. what your plan does is to duplicate what is already the law, which says, if you are out of length insurance for 3 months, then you can end up getting continuous coverage and an insurance company can't deny you if it's been under 90 days. but that's already the law. that doesn't help the millions of people out there with pre-existing conscience. there is a reason why governor romney set up the plan that he did in massachusetts. it wasn't a government takeover of health care. it was the largest expansion of private insurance. but what it does say is that insurers, have you to take everybody. now, that also means have you more customers. but when governor romney says he will replace it with something, but can't detail how it will be in fact replaced and the reason he set up the system he did in massachusetts was because there isn't a better way of dealin
